Luna Token’s Vexed Legal Status Dogs Prosecutors Chasing Kwon

As the latest court decision seems to support Kwon Do’s defense, the Prosecutor’s Office of South Korea continues its effort to build a case against the Terraform Labs CEO. The authority’s pursuit of Kwon has largely been complicated due to the lack of a completely implemented legal code for crypto. Partner attorney Ohoon Kwon explained, “Korean law allows for a more limited range of securities than in the U.S.” He elaborated that there are six categories under the [Capital Markets Act], and the question is whether the tokens from Terraform Labs fall into a group known as investment contracts, which give a contractual right to profits or liability for losses form a venture run by a third party.
